Answer 1

Answer:

so, the question is

7x + 8x = 195

15x = 195

x= 195÷15

x = 13

so, 7x = 7 × 13 = 91

8x = 8 × 13 = 104

Hence, 7x = 91

8x = 104.

Answer 2

Given: Two numbers are in the ratio 7:8 and their sum is 195.

To find: We have to find the numbers.

Solution:

The numbers can be determined by the following steps as follows-

Two numbers are in the ratio 7:8.

Let the numbers be 7x and 8x.

Their sum is 7x+8x=15x.

Given that the sum of the numbers is 195.

So, we can write-

$15x = 195 \\ x = 13$

The value of x is 13.

The numbers are 7×13=91 and 8×13=104.

The numbers are 91 and 104.
